“A truly great Bitcoin podcast!
Stephan’s podcast is excellent, particularly for those looking for a more technical or Austrian-economic view on Bitcoin — wh— it is, why it’s important, and the world-changing implications of its technology and technological changes.
Stephan is well versed in the nitty gritty of both the actual tech — digital signatures, segwit, taproot, DLCs, etc — and the underlying economics. And Stephan does not shy away from controversy. His recent interview with Alex Epstein is an excellent example: While the rest of the community scrambles to assure those outside of Bitcoin that mining uses mostly renewable energy, etc, Stephan is willing to help question the underlying premises of the concerns around Bitcoin’s energy usage, and to fight for our right to use energy as *we* see valuable, rather than ceding the basic ground of the debate.
Stephan keeps his eye on the ball. This is a fundamentally *free* currency for a *free* people who can and should make their own decisions about what they value, and should not be pushed around by political exigencies.
This podcast is a beautiful example of what makes this technology special — made accessible to the whole world!”
